SAgainst the student body, the‘diferent classes ands organizations we hold no coinplaint but rather com- mend all of them for the royal cooperation they have given the staff this year. “And the Truth shall make you free.” Dhe OWE DEAN GEORGE H. COLBERT whe TOWEI AN APPRECIATION Mr. Colbert has the distinction of having had close connection with this school since its founding in nineteen hundred five. Nee The place of honor which he has achieved is not a mere trick of caprice. It is by the painstaking fulfillment of his daily tasks as dean and teacher for eighteen years in this institution that he now holds the distinction of being more | universally loved than any instructor who has ever been identified with it. Few men have had a more strenuous period of service. The early days of his activity embraced important and critical events. How well he acted his part, contending always for the highest welfare of the institution, is known‘only by the student body of those days, and those who were then in close touch with prevailing conditions. As dean, it has been his part to guard and protect the high standard of the school. The performance of his duties in this capacity has at all times evoked the warmest commendation, and the justice and fairness of his decisions have been most apparent and outstanding. At no time has he allowed either friendship or prejudice to warp his judgment or bias his decisions. All this he means to the student body. How much more he means to the pupil in the class room! How vitally has he touched the lives of those with whom he has been associated, day after day! Mr. Colbert is a born teacher. His students have gone to larger schools to learn that only a few of the best teachers measure up to his high standard. Those who know him best love him most and the impression he has made and is making on the community and the school is one that exalts faith in genuine manhood. As a sympathetic counsellor, a faithful friend, an efficient teacher, he has few rivals. No worry is too ordinary to be of some concern to him; no event which touches his friend is too trivial to demand -his best effort; no mental tangle is too insignificant to elicit his keenest interest. Few men have rendered more extensive and helpful returns to those who came seeking intellectual guidance. Mr. Colbert is living not only in the hearts of those who have made up the student body for eighteen years, he is a living factor in the homes of men and women who were boys and girls in his class. His gospel of neatness, accuracy and dependability is being lived in homes into which he has never entered. He is affecting for good, the lives of many he has never seen. We have overlooked the best of his life if we fail to mention his splendid optimism. He dispels gloom, he radiates good will; unhappiness cannot exist in close proximity to him. He is a veritable tower of happiness: “Standing four- square to all the winds that blow!” —Atma Horcuxiss Watkins, 708. Five —— FT] 1923 —_—_—— = DWhe TOWE MN NPL ALON AOS TAA MP A y DP.

S. T. C. is proud of the hall in which beauty and usefulness has been com- bined. The complete equipment and unexcelled conveniences which this home offers for the girls makes it a dormitory superior to any other in the state. The hall is in charge of a house mother, Mrs. Sarah Campbell, who tries to make it a real home. Social life is encouraged and every effort made to surround the girls with influences which make for culture and refinement.

Thirty-five 1923 Whe OWE SS Ee THE SENIORS: Oh, we Seniors gather knowledge, as we wander to and fro And pick up new accomplishments no matter where we go. There’s many an unknown creature in the earth and sea and air, That will repay the student who will track it to its lair. And many a curious insect and many a novel bird We know, of which the ordinary man has never heard. For instance there’s the cowboy out among the sage and castuses Who drives no cows but spends his time in various sportive practices (Leech). Another, though his business is leading college yells, Spends all his time a flirting with the gals (Conner). Thirty-six Whe TOWE The heroes we extenuate, the heroines idealize And gain more inspiration from the dramas than we realize (Houchens, Brum- baugh). Often at the Hall one hero says with self-approving graciousness V’ve found the house. You'll have to hand it to me for sagaciousness (Webb). One is gay and growing gayer for she shrieks with eerie laughter While her chum, a maiden meek and mild with many tongues makes quite a stir (Cranor, Jones). When one was young, his parents saw (as parents by the million see) That Willie had an intellect of quite unequalled brilliancy (DeVore). There are two who eat up authors like any literary cannibal, And even master Latin as the Latins mastered Hannibal (Eckert, Woods). For rhymes must be writ and what matters the course At times she’s employed them with the greatest of force (Eaton). All discoveries of science remain for time to vindicate And profit follows in the path that genius can but indicate (Smith). Oh, the world with all its worries is a falsehood and a snare— And they fain would be housewives free from every earthly care! (Cook, Elmore, Shinabarger). Oh, the drudgery of classes is a tame and thankless thing, Two would rather be trumpeters that their very souls might sing (Schnabel, Elmore). There is one who has to worry with the garbage and the rugs, Though he never tires of talking of the roaches and the bugs (Malotte). If one should bruit an old dispute about some point in history, The other’d raise a ghost and thereon surely end the mystery (Ward, Grimes). There’s a painstaking artist lives in the wonderful age Whose works in the future may decorate many a stage (Sutterfield). Their pens are on the paper, and songs are in their minds, But they never will be written while their lessons lag behind (Jewell, Landfather, Turner, Gillis). There are some of equal consequence we haven’t any doubt, We cannot seem to find at all much less to learn about. Thirty-seven a S88 Whe OWE SENIORS NOT IN SCHOOL The graduating class of nineteen hundred twenty-three consists of forty-five students who receive either the A. B. Degree, the B. S. Degree in education, or who receive both degrees from the Northwest Missouri State Teachers Col- lege. Many of the members of this class have been in school during the whole year. Theirs are the pictures which occupy the first pages of the senior division of the Tower. Others have been teaching during the year, and will return to finish their work in the summer. These, whose pictures do not appear, are just as much a part of the class as are the ones who have been in school during the entire year.

OWE Forty-five Ct OS eee 1 eee BLT oh ——— tt Zhe OWE It is well that the interests of a student body are diversified, for a variety of achievements means broadmindedness and unselfishness. Every year the scores made in athletic events are broadcasted far and wide. Honor is bestowed upon every winning contestant. It is well that this should be, and anything done or said to detract from the honor and prestige of those suc- cessful in athletic achievements would be nothing less than ridiculous. But “lest we forget” that literary achievements do as much in bringing honor and prestige to the individual and to the school, we call to mind their importance by this bronze plate which represents the winners of the literary contests of the year 1922. The spring contests mean to the literary societies what the basket ball tourna- ment means to athletics. They mean that each literary society has, by the pro- cess of elimination, chosen from its society the best representative that it has for the purpose of matching with the representatives of the other societies in oration, declamation, debate, essay, extemporaneous speaking, sight reading, and music. Spring contests also mean the manifestation of enthusiasm, yells, songs, colors, and banners. Finally, they mean that under the direction of these literary organizations a work is being done that stimulates the intellectual life of the whole school. The full bronze tablet, which hangs in the corridor, bears the names of those who have given their time and thought to this agency and who have won the fight in years past. The Tower wishes to commend those who help to foster the literary work of the school. May this bronze plate be an inspiration to others to carry the work forward in the future.

Sixiy-four IY 1923 — Dhe OWE STUDENT COUNCIL Upon the initiative of President Lamkin a plan was presented to the students whereby they could complete an organization for the governing of the student body. ‘The idea as outlined by President Lamkin was adopted. The student body proceeded to elect representatives to the Council as follows: One representative from each of the following: I'reshman, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior classes; the Newman Club, Y. M. C. A., and Y. W. C. A.; Philomathean, Eurekan, and Excelsior literary societies; and three representatives from the stu- dent body at large. This arrangement made the Council entirely student repre- sentative with a membership of thirteen. At the first meeting of the elected members, officers for the new Student Council were chosen as follows: President, Jason Kemp; Vice-President, Mabel Raines; Secretary and Treasurer, Howard Leech. ‘Those officers have served ably throughout the present school year. ‘The Student Council, as a new organizaticn, is trying to lay a firm founda- tion for future regimes. A definite plan of work is being carried out that will leave established precedents of unquestioned meaning and a path hewn clean. The Student Council next elected will have ideals, practices and worthy examples established, and no time need be lost in getting under way.with affairs of their office. The first Student Council of the N. W. M.S. T. C. entered their office with the,following main ideas to carry out: To foster college spirit. To establish and uphold traditions of the college. To represent the student body before the administration, To carry on communication with other colleges. To regulate and encourage activities of the student body. These ideas have been maintained and fostered in a quict, businesslike man- ner without offending anyone and at the same time obtaining the confidence and respect of all. Finally, it is the earnest attempt of the present Student Council to leave as a legacy to on-coming Councils an example of wholesome, constructive work carried out with the co-operation of the student body and the administration.

This enlarged membership included practically all of the Girls’ Basket Ball Team and the Boys’ Basket Ball Team. The Football Team were also largely Eurekans. On January 17, 1923, the Eurekans put on one of the best assembly pro- grams of the year—a program of readings, aesthetic dancing and music. In the 1922 spring contests the Eurekans won places as follows: Jeanctte Brock, first in sight reading; Jack Bland, Charles Elmore, first in debate; Mabel Raines, first in declamation; Merle Selecman, second in extemporaneous speak- ing; Laveta E pperson, third in essay.

Miss Beatrix Winn and Miss Mattie Dykes of the English Department are faculty advisers. The purpose of the club, which meets twice a month, is to create and stimu- late an interest in and appreciation for modern literature and to improve the conversational English of its members. Only students who have at least ten hours of college credit in English and an average of “M” in all other college studies are eligible to membership. The first meeting was devoted to a study of forms of modern poetry, in an attempt to understand what the modern poets are really trying to do. Papers dealing with free verse and polyphonic prose were read, and a round table dis- cussion took up the questions of cadences, rhythms, rhyme, imagistic verse, and patterns. Later programs have been devoted to the study of individual poets. Charter members of the club are: Thelma Eaton, Lucile Brumbaugh, Alva Burch, Mrs. L. E.

After being delightfully entertained and finding out how many Masons there were in the College, they decided to form a club. A meeting was called and organization was perfected. The name of the club was discussed and at a subsequent meeting the name was voted Compass and Square Club. The object of the club is to further the great principles of the order and encourage the fellowship of Masons in College. The club holds meetings at intervals during the school year. Plans are made for groups to attend the meetings of the local chap- ters, to join with the Eastern Star Club in their social stunts, and to further worthy enter- prises in the school. Some of the activities of the club during the year have been: Banquet each term in conjunction with the Eastern Star Club, picnic in the College Park, assisting the local chapter of Royal Arch to form a team for St. Joseph, and sending four members to take the chapter degrees at St. Joseph.

The purpose of the organization is to further the best interests of Home Economics in State Teachers’ Colleges. The world needs women who have attained an intellectual, spiritual, ethical, and aesthetic poise. Therefore, in order to develop women with higher ideals of sane living, with deeper appreciation of the sanctity of the American home, with broader social and higher intellectual and cultural attainments, Kappa Omicron Phi was organized. Meetings, which are held fortnightly in Residence Hall, are of a duel nature. In addition to their social aspect, they are devoted largely to matters pertaining to Home Economics. Thus are achieved cultural and intellectual attainments. There are two classes of members in Kappa Omicron Phi, associate and active. Membership is based upon scholarship and the number of hours com- pleted in Home Economics.

The purpose ot the organization is to familiarize the members with all the prac- tical work and functioning of a civic body. The club is very much in evidence at the athletic games and has become known as the “College Razzers.” An im- portant feature of the organization is the weekly luncheons held at the various hotels and restaurants. Interesting talks on different phases of the business world by leading business men of the state are given. In the future it is planned to have the weekly luncheons at the Residence Hall. The success of the organiza- tion has been due largely to the efforts of Mr. E. W. Atkinson, Head of the Com- mercial Department, and other capable leaders.

This is the one time in the year when “good fellows get together.” Last year the banquet was a great success, and State Teachers’ Col- lege is looking for the Alumni with class songs and yells. The organization of the degree graduates is an association within the Alumni Association. As it becomes greater with the growth of the school and the passing years, good things will be heard of its work. This year its officers are as follows: President—William Utter, B.

S., 1921 The Alumni Association of the State Teachers’ College is an organization composed of degree graduates and those who hold the Life Certificate. Each succeeding year the Association gains numbers and strength with every graduating class, and its aim and purpose is to perfect an organization that will serve its members and advance its Alma Mater. The Alumni Associa- tion is interested in every movement its Alma Mater undertakes. Every forward step is a matter of pride and an opportunity for support and service. One hundred five alumni and friends of the college sat down to a banquet at Hotel Baltimore in Kansas City during the State Teachers’ Association. A delicious dinner was served; godd stories were told; but nothing was so splendid as the spirit of fellowship that predominated, and those who were there hope to attend next year’s dinner in St. Louis. Eighty-one Zhe TOWE DRAMATIC CLUB The Dramatic Club was organized in September, 1922, under the direction of Miss Blanche Dow, with an enrollment of sixty-five members. At its mect- ings, which are held weekly, shor t plays or scenes from longer ones are pre- sented. [From its members all casts for the public presentation of plays are chosen. The meetings during the fall and spring terms were devoted to the study of the one-act play, such a play being presented each Wednesday evening. Among those given were: The Finger of God, Percival Wilde; Playgoers, Sir Arthur Pinero; The Silver Lining, and Ashes of Roses, Constance Mackay; Where but in America, Oscar Wolff, and The Twelve-Pouwnd Look, J. M. Barrie. The winter term was devoted to the study of 4s You Like t, with emphasis on practice in vocal and pantomimic expression. On January 31 the Dramatic Club presented at assembly Poor Old Jim— William De Mille—with a cast of Lucile Brumbaugh, Perry Eads, and William Mapel, and The Beau of Bath—Constance Mackay—with a cast of Laveta Epperson, Jeanette Brock, and Florence McDonald. February 2 Poor Old Jim was repeated as a number of the Lyceum course which the college has been furnishing to the Grand View High School, near Berlin, and February 5 it was given by invitation before the Maryville Chamber of Commerce. Under the auspices of the Dramatic Club, Mr. Edward Abner Thompson of Boston, Massachusetts, one of the ablest and most artistic readers on the Ameri- can platform, came to Maryville March 19 to read Disraeli. It was one of the most delightful recitals of the year. Bighty-two 1923 RoLi Margaret Deitz Albert Hamilton Lorene Penny Miriam Gray Irene Lowry Augusta Quell Anna May Gillis .

Last year it was not much in evidence, but be- ginning with the end of the football season this year, the “M]” men came to the front, and their club, from many standpoints, has been one of the most successful in the school. About thirty-five “M” men are now enrolled in school. The semi-monthly meetings of the club have been regular, and at each meet- ing a program of variety and interest has been given. It was the “MM” Club that so successfully sponsored the circus which was given this spring.

It is the same course that is given in the high schools through- out the state. The purpose of the course is to train students to a standard of efficiency for teaching in public elementary or rural schools. Nine students will complete this course in June. A Teachers’ Training Club was organized in September, 1922. This is a self-improvement club in which the members get the practice in preparing and giv- ing programs, at the same time making a study of subjects beneficial to them but not provided in this course. One or two social meetings are held each term. The members have taken great interest in this work and have given some very profitable programs.

The Club realizes the importance and the immensity of its problem and feels that it has made a beginning in the closer co-operation of college and county schools. Rural Life Day at the Rural Demonstration School, the Garett School, three miles southwest of Maryville, was the big feature of the school year. The Cham- ber of Commerce and citizens of Maryville co-operated with the club and the school, thus bringing the town people into a closer relaticn with the rural school. An interesting program was rendered, the principal speakers being President Lam- kin of the college and Dr. A. FE. Winship, editor of the Journal of Education, Boston, Massachusetts. The social functions of the year have been enjoyable and profitable. Many of the charter members will be back for the short course and the summer session when plans for rendering greater service will be discussed. 1921-22 President—Nlerle Selecman Vice-President—Jason Kemp Secretary—Myrle Shambarger Treasurer—Ethel Roberts 1922-25 President—F ay Croy Vice-President—Jason Kemp Secretary—F annie Blacklock Treasurer—Letha Wilson Eighty-six THE GREEN AND WHITE COURIER The Green and White Courier, the official organ of the college, is published every two weeks by the class in Journalism, a regular course offered by the English Department.

They are men who served in the late World War and while in service were disabled in such ways as to make them unable to carry on their pre-war occupations. Most of them were wounded while fighting on the battlefield. In order that these men who were disabled while serving their country may be able to carry on some form of work, Congress passed a Jaw which provides that each man whose previous education is sufficient to admit him to college be given the benefit of a college education. This educatian is vocational, fitting him for some definite profession. After this law was passed, a new department in the government was estab- lished, the Veterans’ Bureau.

Mr. Gardner has given much time and attention to the arrangements of a prcgram in which each num- ber is a special feature that is full of interest and inspiraticn. Sunday, May 5, will be opening day. Special Sunday morning services, with music as the central thought, will be observed in all the churches of the community. Sunday night the faculty of the Ccnservatory of Music, assisted by the College Chorus, will give a recital with Mr. Gardner at the organ and Miss Geneva Wilfley and Mr. Thomas Annett at the piano. Mr. L. A. Richman will sing several numbers and Mr. C. D. Kutchinski will play some violin solos. The College Chorus will sing cne or two groups. “The Holy City,” an oratorio by Gaul, will be presented by the combined choruses of the college, high school and community Monday night. The chorus will consist of about two hundred voices, accompanied by Miss Wilfley and Mr: Annett at two pianos. This is probably the largest chorus which has been assem- bled in this county. The soloists chosen are: Mrs. F. P. Robinson, soprano; Mrs. Allen Hinckley of Kansas City, contralto; Mr. L. A. Richman, baritone. The tenor has not yet been chosen. As the audience gathers, the predominating themes of the oratorio will be announced through the corridors of the Administration Building by trumpeters. The enjoyment which the study of the great work has made possible can only be expressed through the enthusiasm with which the chorus presents it to the audience. An unusual event in the form of a piano duo recital will take place on Tues- day evening. The artists will be Arne Oldberg and Carl Beecher of Northwestern University. ‘The lovers of music will look forward to this opportunity of hearing the beautiful and extraordinary effect which may be gained through two-piano compositions. The Kansas City Little Symphony will play two concerts Thursday, one in the afternoon and one at night. Selections will be played which were used in the Memory Contests last year. Friday night the combined bands of the county, under the direction of Mr. Kutskinski, will give a concert. Their unusual success last year at their first appearance will insure them an enthusiastic audience this year. A festival such as this fills a very important place in the life of the college and also the com- munity. Ninety-five =F Ail ext oo es ees The COLLEGE CHORUS Charles R. Gardner, Director Geneva Wilfley, Pianist Thomas H. Annett, Pianist The College Chorus consists of men and women who are interested in study- ing and presenting the best music which can be procured. They appear in assembly from time to time and are always enthusiastically received. At the Christmas assembly they gave some beautiful interpretations of carols and art songs. The chief work of the chorus this year is the study of The Holy City, by Gaul. With the help of soloists and the community chorus, they will present it as one of the features of the Spring Music Festival. iter Hal get Ninety-six | | 1923 LA SUPRISE D’ISIDORE A unique part of the program of the Section of Modern Languages of the State Teachers’ Association held in Kansas City, November 18, 1922, was “La Suprise d‘Isidore,” a one-act French comedy, arranged by Victor Francois and presented by members of the ciass, French 61A, under the direction of Miss Blanche Dow of the Department of French.

Out of cight conference games played, four were won, and when the final standing of the teams was announced, Coach Maynor’s men were tied for third place. . This was a creditable achievement, considering the fact that the team was made up, almost entirely, of new material. “Liz” Foreman, fullback and two-year man, was elected the 1923 Captain to succeed “Red” Graham, who was a good Captain of the 1922 eleven. Next year only Webb, Miller and Leech will be lost from the team, and prospects loom bright for a winning, even a championship, team. At the close of the season letters and sweaters were awarded to the sixteen men whose names follow: Hugh Graham, Cecil Beck, Floyd Foreman, Karl!

With the help of an enthusiastic body of root- ers, they were able to win every game played on the home court. From a squad of twelve men, whom he shifted from position to position to discover their possibilities, Coach Maynor finally selected Captain Leech, Miller, Blomfield, Ellis, and Kirby as his first love, and it was this team that so well upheld the honor of the Green and White. Praise is due, however, to those who came out day after day to give these men practice. At the end of the season, letters and sweaters with one service bar on the sleeve were awarded to Ray Blomfield, Ernest [Ellis, Harold Brown, Lon Wilson, Russell Allan and Leston Webb, student manager of the team; a letter and a sweater with two service bars to Harry Haun; and letters and sweaters with three service bars to Earl Miller, Howard Leech and Richard Kirby.

In the five games played they scored a total of 246 points while their opponents scored a total of only 41 points. Miss Mary MacLeod, the girls’ coach, started the season with a team of almost all veterans of the championship sextette of last year. Both of her forwards were back, her running center was with her, and only one guard was lost. The guard position she easily filled by would fill the vacancy caused by the loss of Mis. Walter Nixon was a hard propo- sition. She looked her material over at the beginning of. the season and chose Lola McNeal, a former Jameson High School player. She chose well, for this girl has played every minute of every game, and worked well with the team. Teamwork was one of the outstanding features of the girls. They did not play as individuals, but as a machine. Loyalty, co-operation, and teamwork on the part of the girls and Miss MacLeod have developed a championship team. COULD S.C. T.

It is the purpose of the college to encourage intercollegiate debating, and to that end two debating teams were chosen this year. Challenges were issued to all the State Teachers’ Colleges in Missouri and to some in Nebraska, but as none of them were accepted, the teams chosen have had no competitive debates this year. The members of the first team are: John Querry, Florine Pollard, and Frederick Kurtz. The members of the second team are: Stephen La Mar, Jack Sheley, and James Sherer.

The program for the evening consisted of a guessing game, the Grand March, in which all of the guests participated, and a very clever fireplace stunt in which several boys and girls, dressed in night attire, greeted Santa Claus as he approached the fireplace with his pack filled with gifts the guests had earlier in the evening deposited in a box at the door. Santa distributed the gifts to all present, and the receivers made merry with dolls, tin horns, and drums. When their fun was over they left the gifts to be given to the poor children of the town.

Even up here in the Himalayas, whither we had fled on the first day of our vacation, the heat pursued us. Back in the city men, women and children were dying by the hundreds, as they went about through the streets secking shelter from the relentless rays of India’s July sun. I sat at my desk writing, but my thoughts continually strayed off to my brother, Deane, and his wife. who had wandered farther up the mountainside in search of a cool, secluded nook where they would spend the afternoon reading and telling each other over and over again all those sweet nothings which lovers delight to hear. This was their honeymoon, and I felt like an intruder, although I came with them only after much persuasion on their parts. They never failed to include me in any of their plans, but I rarely accompanied them. For the first time in my life I was jealous. Deane and I had been pals for years, and now someone else had tal:en my place in his life; and I was responsible for it all, I had introduced my friend, Ruth Hammond, to him over a year ago while he was visiting me, and it had been a case of love at first sight. Now Ruth was his bride, and there would never again exist that perfect camaraderie between my brother and me. His work was in Cawnpore, many miles from Naini Tal, where I was located, but there had been frequent visits and much correspondence between us, so that he seemed very near and I had come to depend a great deal upon him for guidance and advice in everything. Now it was all changed, and how desperately lonely I felt! While those thoughts came pounding through my brain, I looked out the door near which I was sitting and saw a runner coming swiftly up the moun- tain path toward the cottage. Nluch alarmed, I arose and rushed out to meet him. As he reached me he bowed low and without a word handed me a cable- gram. He sank exhausted and panting to the ground, while I stood there holding the fateful slip in my hand and trembling with fear. What news could it contain? Perhaps my mother was ill, or even worse— could it be that she was dead? How could I endure that, although I know that that news must come sometime! Or it might be simply a call for help back in Naini Tal. No doubt someone was seriously ill and I was needed at the school. Feverishly I tore open the envelope and read: “Will you come? Reply date—David.” This was a daring thing for David to do; surely there was a hidden meaning in these few words. Why should he want a definite reply at this time. Evi- dently he thought I cvould come, for he seemed to expect me to cable the exact date of my sailing. Dear old David! I had always loved him, but had long ago answered the stern call of Duty and had left love and happiness behind me, com- ing to this far distant land to do what I could to relieve the suffering of these heathen people (for I fully believe that real missionary work can be done only through healing first the body—then the mind is more receptive). But now I was beginning to waver. I had done my bit ten Icng years, broken only by a short furlough three years ago; they had been successful years, too, and full of accomplishment. Would not some younger person be more effi- cient in my place? Had I not been too hard on David, and did he not need me more than these people of India? Was it right that I should deny not only him but myself the sumpreme happiness of home and children? Long had he waited, One Hundred Thirty-six m . yr — Zhe Owe always hopeful that some day I would discover that I needed him as much as he needed me. With such thoughts racing through my muddled brain, I was completely lost to my surroundings and was brought back to my senses by the sudden appear- ance of the messenger in the doorway. He asked if there were any message to be returned. I replied that I could send no message until morning, and that I would make arrangements for him to spend the night there and he could return early the next day. As he was disappearing, I heard the eager, laughing voices ol Deane and Ruth as they came down the mountain. When they came within hearing distance, Ruth shouted: “Oh, Elizabeth, you should have gone with us today. We found the best place yet, so cool and— why, what on earth is the matter with you? You're as pale as a ghost!” “What’s wrong, Beth? Have you had a scare?” Without a word I handed them the message, which I still held in my hand, and watched them closely. “Well of all things! What is the old chap thinking of? You’re not going, of course!” “What makes you think I’m not going, Deane? Is there any good reason why I shouldn’t go?” “Why, no—that is—no, of course not, if you want to go, Beth. Do you?” “I’m afraid I do, Deane. There must be a reason for his sending a cable at this particular time—don’t you think so? I shall never forgive myself if he is ill and if I reach him too late.” “Oh, do you really think he is ill, dear?” anxiously inquired Ruth. “I think he would have said so in the message if he were, don’t you, Deane?” “Yes, I do. But I can’t understand David’s cable. He was broken-hearted when you came out here the last time, Beth. It’s been pretty hard on him.” “T must decide what I shall do, dear people, so if you will excuse me, I shall spend the evening in my room. I must think undisturbed.” Tar into the night I pondered, going over the same old ground again and again, and wondering if I were merely making excuses for going just to satisfy my conscience. Finally I became conscious of only one thought—that I must go. Some compelling force seemed to decide for me, and that decision being made, a feeling of peace and joy possessed me such as I had never before known. Before I slept I wrote my reply for the runner to take back with him in the morning. It said: “Sailing August —Elizabeth.” It was impossible to make it more definite, for I did not know the sailing dates, but I was positive that there would be no passenger vessels leaving until August. The three weeks following were spent in arranging my affairs in Naini Tal so that my successor could easily take up my work. I had said my farewells to Ruth and Deane and had come back to make preparations for leaving. How glad I was now that Deane had Ruth with him! How could I have gone if it had been otherwise? My jealousy was fast vanishing. In another week I stood aboard the Empress of Asia as she steamed out of the harbor at Calcutta. “Good-bye, India! Good-bye, Ruth and Deane!” I breathed, the tears springing to my eyes as I watched the distant shore line become less and less distinct. I turned away and hastened to my stateroom, where I found a steward rapping at my door. “Are you hunting Miss Crandall?” I asked. “Yes, madam; I have a letter for Miss Elizabeth Crandall.” “A letter!” I cried, much astonished. “Yes, I am Miss Crandall, thank you,” I replied to his inquiry, taking the letter excitedly and hastening to my room. 329 One Hundred Thirty-seven 1923 Dhe TOWER It was from Ruth and Deane, again wishing me a pleasant and safe voyage and much happiness at the end of the journey. How thoughtful of them! If I could have had a letter from David before starting! But that was impossible, I knew. Would he receive my cable I had sent before coming aboard, telling when I would arrive, and would he meet me? One day as I sat on deck in my steamer chair reading a magazine loaned to me by a fellow passenger, I overheard a man call to my neighbor, saying, “Have you heard the news?” The reply being in the negative, he proceeded: “The United States has ordered her first troops to France.” I leaned forward quickly and called to the informer: “Has the United States entered the war, too? Is it really true?” Far from civilization as I had been, I had heard nothing and learned for the first time that my native land had declared war on Germany and had been rapidly drilling men to send to the front. From that time on I was most impatient to reach my native shores. The days dragged by endlessly, and our progress was much retarded, because of the care which must be taken when going through the war zone. It was on the morning of September 2nd that the coast line of America became visible, and tense was the excitement of everyone as we watched it grow clearer and clearer until finally we could distinguish New York Harbor. My baggage was all ready and I was eager to be off among the first. As we reached the dock I nervously scanned all the faces there, hoping to sec David. I followed the other passengers down the long gangway and was making my way through the gate when I caught sight of him. He was hurrying toward me through a throng of people. He took me into his arms silently; we cared not for the curious eyes that watched us. We had each other at last, and we were speechless with joy. When the words finally came, it was he who spoke. “Oh, my dear, how can I bear to leave you so soon!” “So soon, David! What do you mean?” “Then you did not get my letter, dear?” a “No, David. Tell me what is wrong. I know your cable did not tell all.” “No, Elizabeth, it didn’t. When war was declared, I enlisted. ‘Tomorrow I leave for the front. Will you marry me today, dear? I want to transfer my estate to Mrs. David Stone before I go.” “Yes, David, I will marry you today. But I don’t want your property, dear. I want you.” “Dear girl, can you wait a few months, even a few years, for me? Do you realize that I have waited fifteen long, miserable years for this day? And now that I have you, do you think it is easy for me to go off and leave you? It is Duty and Patriotism that call me now. My country needs me.” “Yes, dear, you must go. Duty is a hard taskmaster, David, but I can wait.” Luci.e Airy THe Home of THe Brave Scene: A war prison in Boston. Time: Revolutionary War. Cyarues Enpersy, an American Spy. Characters Irs.

Since the abolition of “Benchology” the halls arc her hunting grounds. It is far beyond the ability of a mere man to write a distinctive description of her. Excepting a pair of gray eyes and a neat little curl on her forchead, it is doubtful if any two people would agree in further de- scribing her. The only difference between this modern Eve in college and Ive in the Garden of Eden is that the former cannot lay the blame of her mis- demeanors on a harmless serpent as the latter did. She lures the innocent, unsuspecting young men from their beloved books and maps and leads them “willy-nilly” into inconsequential chatter of jokes and repartee. Legion are the embryonic Caesars who have tarried at the side of this artful collegiate Cleopatra while duty called in vain. Full many a young Romeo has come to class and uttered the humiliating word, “Unprepared,” after a protracted session with the Juliet of the corridors. Woe be unto the luckless one who incurs her royal displeasure! He shall learn that she can be as stubborn as a bulldog, as cold as an iceberg and as distant as the Northern Star. If there be anyone here who has discovered this, ] am sure it will aid him to a better and broader understanding of these beautiful lines of Kipling: “When the early Jesuit fathers preached to Huron and Choctaws, They prayed to be delivered from the vengeance of the squaws. Twas the women, not the warriors, turned those stark enthusiasts pale, For the female of the species is more deadly than the male.” Garuann Miuuer. Cuasing Butterrvies Oh, what fun on a summer day, Under the bright blue sky, Chasing the golden butterflies As they go flitting by. Bright and yellow and crimson are they, Flitting here and there; All day long their gauzy wings Fan the balmy air.

It includes single lectures, a series of lectures, demonstrations, educational surveys, intellectual tests, rural school inspections, the judging of debates, vitalized agriculture short courses, correspond- ence courses, and recitations and examinations on delinite assignments for col- lege credit. Practically all of the subjects offered by the College may be given by exten- sion except those which require a great deal of laboratory and library equip- ment. More and more the school realizes that it must take a college education out to the people of the district who are unable to secure it otherwise. The ex- tension department has adopted the following slogan, “Li you can’t go to college, the college will come to you.” The history of the extension department is comparatively short, but since its creation, the citizens of the community have felt its service to be very real and very worthwhile. ‘The department was organized under the supervision of a committee of the faculty, with Henry A. Foster, instructor of history, as chair- man. The department served thirty-two individuals during the first year. ‘I'he war made it necessary to discontinue the work during the years of 1917-18. When the work was again resumed in 1918-19 the number benefited was increased to fifty-two. An enormous increase was made during 1920-21 when the enrollment came to be two hundred-two. The increased enrollment and the great amount of work which was attached to the business side of it made it necessary for Mr. Bert Cooper to be employed in the College as head of the department. During the vear of 1921-1922, 630 mectings were held, 33,464 miles were traveled and 36,393 people were reached; 527 of this number were students en- rolled as regular students in correspondence courses and classes at visitation cen- ters and received credit.
